In the UK it is thought that between 3 to 5% of school-aged children have a diagnosis of ADHD. With a surge in the number of people seeking a diagnosis in recent years, this figure looks set to increase.

This full day agenda offers practical strategies and insights to create positive learning environments, foster mental well-being, and improve school attendance. From proactive behaviour management techniques and fostering inclusive staff mindsets to building strong partnerships with parents and carers, this event equips you with the tools needed to support every child’s success.
